Abstract

"Politics and Other Mistakes" piece reporting, in tongue-in-cheek style, that both the far left and the far right have proposed the same economic development plan for Maine. The conservative Christian Civic League of Maine, reacting to Gov. John Baldacci's proposal to create a genetic-research facility, wants the state instead to concentrate on encouraging rural development, specifically family farms. On the left, environmental activist Nancy Oden of Jonesboro, a newly announced independent candidate for governor, proposes subsidizing young people on small, organic farms.
